Anchorite Telah Wrote:Swamphoof again
Initially I returned to the Dwelling of Light because of a growing uncertainty within me. I harbour no distrust towards the spiritualists of the Earthen Ring but I question our current goal. That seer did not even show enough decency to hide his doubts about the lost shamans having survived this long. Should I lead my flock towards in such a selfishly motivated quest when the chance of failure seems almost equal to the chance of success? I have to, for Nexariel I will strive against the odds.
I had intended to only visit the capital briefly but when I visited Breenia and the other children at the orphanage, the matron told me about a recent increase of swamphoof among the vagrants of Lower City. In turn I remained at the Infirmary to aid them during this curious event. It would seem that after talking with all afflicted that some hadn’t even visited Zangar in the last few lunar cycles, which still left two accounts when the less credible individuals were left out. Has this ailment somehow become a contagion?
But perchance today I met sister Andra and brother Gantrithor and they shared with me unsigned letters that had been left for both of them to find. I am uncertain about the purpose of these messages or the underlying agenda of the nameless author. The usage of ‘shadow & Light’-symbology leads me to believe that whoever wrote the letters has a strong religious ideology leaned towards the Holy Light of Creation. In the end all we could agree upon about these messages was that we all thought there would be more to come. Time will tell.
By the Light’s embrace.
